If you own an Android Wear smartwatch or plan on getting a wearable device in the near future, Zenno will give you a new cool way of using it!

Through our public SDK, Zenno will give developers great control methods for any DIY electronic projects, from LED light shows to RC cars.

Our system solves top issues identified by Lowe’s 2014 smart home survey:

On kickstarter, Zenno has a full price of just $79, with many discounted packages and at least 15% less than retail price.

There’s nothing more convenient than using Zenno to control your home electronics

Zenno can turn off the lights when you’re away.

You can setup Zenno to do routine actions for you.

Control or preset your air conditioner or thermostat from the Zenno app to save money and enjoy a perfect home environment

The beginning - first prototype on open source hardware

The device, working on Radio and IR. Still a lot of work to be done

The fully functional alpha stage of development

Zenno connects wirelessly to devices via Wi-Fi, RF (433MHz and 315MHz) and InfraRed, controlled by an ARM Cortex M3 and can learn both RF and InfraRed codes.

Zenno can connect to the smart devices you already own and we're constantly adding more to the list.

The structure of the app makes finding the device you want to control very easy, compared to similar apps. We've also included useful features like Smart Scenes, Custom Remotes and the changeable voice commands.

Smart Scenes are sets of actions that can be executed simultaneously at the owners will, at preset hours or when certain parameters are met, like arriving home.

With Custom Remotes you can organize buttons from different devices on only one remote for easy access and usability.

Use voice commands to activate certain features of an electronic, or even complex scenes! "Switch to channel 9" is an example of a command that will be recognized by the app right away.

Setting a voice command for a scene can make Zenno do actions like dim the lights, roll down the blinds, turn on the TV and sound system, all just by saying "I want to watch a movie".

When you first open the app you'll be guided through the simple setup process. Add legacy or smart devices and control them from one app with the added benefit of voice recognition and cross-platform integration.

We started working on home automation systems 4 years ago, out of passion. Since 2013, we transitioned from mostly wired, custom implemented systems to wireless solutions.

To reach the global community we had to think of a simple and effective solution that would make everyday life easier and more entertaining.

That’s how we started working on a new project: Zenno. We built a first prototype, won a €15k sponsorship, and now we want to bring this system to market with your help.

We're working with consultants with over 20 years of experience to guide us on the right path alongside a dedicated team of developers.

Help us by letting your friends know about Zenno!

Risks and challenges

After the funding limit is reached, we will sign a contract with our manufacturing partner for a large batch, and that's where a considerable amount of money will go.
One problem we might face is that the manufacturer could produce a faulty batch. We won't ship any devices that are below expectations.
Even if we have to replace a batch, we believe that product delivery will be done in time. Final packaging will be done near Washington DC, and shipped from there.
Another issue is fast product integration. We know you want to connect every smart device to Zenno, and that's why we are extending the team designated with this task.

Kickstarter is not a store.
